Hey there everyone!

I'm posting a bit of news concerning myself and my stream. First of all, thanks for following me all the way to here! Couldn't have done it without you Heartheart. I now have my new computer! It's way less of a hassle to stream now and I still need to get used to look on my other computer for the chat but I'm getting there! Don't be upset if I sometimes miss a message or two, instead just be sarcastic about how not attentionate I have become! The details concerning the new computer is in the FAQ part of the forum, I have listed everything there that you would want to know.

Second thing, my streaming plans! I'm a bit torn between games right now, PAYDAY 2 stays the main game I stream but I would eventually like to branch out. I also am thinking about getting a webcam but it might not happen till a few months. I'm still getting adjusted to my new working life and it's a bit hard to get used to it for now as I'm still considered new and probably will be for the next few months. But we will go through that too!

Last but not least I would like to thank Schen8 and Tigress88 for moderating the stream during almost since the beginning that they were with me! I think they are wonderful people. I'm trying to figure myself out about the stream ^.^


See you live soon!

Jay.

Hey everyone!

First of all, I wanted to thank all of you for the support the past few weeks/months. I'm so happy to stream every time I do to talk and interact with you guys and it's always awesome! It has been a long time since I have posted any news here and I'm sorry for that.

It is mainly due to the fact that I have gotten back into active life and have a full-time job now. I'm trying to get used to it as it is a bit of a challenge for me, and thus just need some time to adapt and balance it all out. A while back I had made some news about getting work to buy a new computer. Now that it's a reality, I'm in the process of doing so, it might still take a little while since I have to order all the things and put it together, but we are however getting there.

I will be streaming and have somewhat of a schedule (you know me, it gets a bit hectic for me at times). I would like to still stream PAYDAY 2, which will be awesome with a good computer since I won't have all kind of FPS issues anymore and will be able to do some cool new challenges, and I will also stream other games I couldn't before, being limited to performance.

In the meantime we have also been certified by Overkill which is a great honor, not only will it enable me to give some keys away but hopefully have a bigger weight in the balance when it comes to balance discussions or getting Overkill staff to interview/interact with about gameplay.

I hope you guys are doing great and I look forward to streaming for you again real soon

Keep those helmets flying!

Hello everyone!

I hope you are all having a nice summer! Things are a bit moving on my part with the stream as I just made new panels aimed at making it more user-friendly and less cluttered space. Two of those panels (FAQ and Builds) redirect users in the forum of the group here and others are just accessibility links for Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Discord. Speaking of Discord, if you would like to chat with me about builds, meta, payday 2 itself or anything else feel free to join in, I will be redoing both text and voice channels today. I have reworked things like chat displayed in game and new notifications for donations, subs, and more.

I have posted a first build, the shotgunner, aimed at doing One Down difficulty with ease using an Izhma and a judge. Very easy build to play and very safe.

You will also find in the build section a brief explaination on the Armor Gating mechanics, I will explain other aspects of my builds such as grace periods and little tips and tricks for the game.


Concerning donations, it is now possible to donate via Paypal and/or CC, as well as subscribing and cheering on stream. I have changed my mind about the whole donation thing as I do not think it will hinder the way I stream or play in any way, and as such am going with a big cliche, but it will make the stream better in the long run. I plan to make the stream overall nicer once I will have a new computer as well, but in the meantime donations will allow me to buy things like a second monitor, a webcam, and more. Thanks to the people who already have given me support.

On a final note I am strongly considering playing more and more with viewers or at least even with people in the game, stay tuned for more informations.

Talk to you soon!

Hello everyone!


First of all I wanted to say thank you for sticking around my stream - I have been doing it for a little while and I'm happy to see how positive the community is and the good times I have talking with you during my heisting times. I also would like to mention Schen8, Tigress, Topjewelthief and Bebeness in particular for sticking with me, encouraging me to stream more and more despite running a pretty low quality stream. Yes, you have been watching a stream running on 480p, single monitor. But all of this only makes me want to get good gear and have a better stream for you guys, so that we can have more fun together! I wanted to briefly talk about my personal life in this post: things are going better now and I intended to stream more often and work on getting a brand new desktop computer and a webcam. It should be coming within the next few months.



A few days ago I have made a run of Framing Frame on my channel, and although it doesn't seem like a huge accomplishment, it is for me. Doing Solo runs on Payday 2 require a lot of patience, and I don't intend to stream stricly Solo OD the way I did Framing Frame, but I will still do runs like that every once in a while when I feel like it. The rest will probably be Solo with bots for smoother gameplay and a bit of stealth here and there as usual ;) You may find the FF Solo OD Loud - No Assets, bots, converts, downs here:

(A big thanks to my good friend Kins0 with whom I talk a lot about soloing and who supports me a lot during my runs)


You guys are also aware of my stance on donations and subs on my channel. Whilst I have been running a while without any, I have decided I will turn on the Twitch affiliate program to enable subs and perhaps a donation system in the near future. Why have I changed my mind about it? A few of you frequently ask to donate to my channel to show your appreciation, and whilst I will never ask for donation, I have decided to let them on and see how people interact with the stream. This means I will also work on the stream within the next few days to have a better presentation (graphics, panels, etc.)


In the meantime, I'm still awaiting an answer concerning my Overkill approval as a Twitch streamer. Fingers crossed. I am asking this in the hope to get perhaps more influence in future difficulty balance work, which should be coming at the end of 2017.

Keep those helm flyin'!

Hello everyone!


First of all, as you might have noticed I haven't been streaming for a while and kept busy with work and school. I just finished a project and will now have a bit more time to stream PAYDAY 2!

Now I wanted to make this announcement to talk to you about a thread that I have made on the steam forums and which you can check here:

http://v1.steam.hlxgame.cc/app/218620/discussions/26/340412122404319339/


This is a suggestion thread about the One Down difficulty and other difficulties that might need a tweak to make the game more enjoyable. The current meta isn't exactly very fun to play, and I would love if you could give your input on that thread, either it be negative or positive feedback.


Thank you!
Jay
